If you never admit to yourself
Let alone tell anyone
That there's an emptiness eating your heart
Deep beneath surface fake fun
How will anyone open your eyes?
How will you reach through your pain?
How will you heal your deep brokenness
Open your heart once again?
Love is alive - you can believe it
Love is alive - if you let yourself feel it
Let the grace and the hand of compassion
Reach the depths of the pain that you feel
For the heart that was buried is risen
Love's alive, Love's ready to heal
I know you've had it hard in your life
There's reasons why you don't trust
Yes, it's a fight for survival, you think
You do what you feel you must
Yet you know what you do doesn't work
It only deepens your shame
You flee grief that you're scared to embrace
Looking for someone to blame
Love is alive - you can believe it
Love is alive - if you let yourself feel it
Let the grace and the hand of compassion
Reach the depths of the pain that you feel
For the heart that was buried is risen
Love's alive, Love's ready to heal
Somebody loves you
More than you can know
The time has come
To trust someone
And let the habits of a lifetime go
Love is alive - you can believe it
Love is alive - if you let yourself feel it
Let the grace and the hand of compassion
Reach the depths of the pain that you feel
For the heart that was buried is risen
Love's alive, Love's ready to heal
Love is alive - you can believe it
Love is alive - if you let yourself feel it
Let the grace and the hand of compassion
Reach the depths of the pain that you feel
For the heart that was buried is risen
Love's alive, Love's ready to heal
Love's alive, Love's ready to heal
Love's alive, Love's ready to heal
1 Corinthians 13:1-3
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have a prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
cf: Matthew 1:1-8, Psalm 51:10, Ezekiel 36:26, Romans 12:2, 2 Corinthians 3:18, Philippians 1:6
